All over the world, there are polyglots who study and work hard towards their end goal of polyglotism. Some of them concentrate on the current languages of the world including Spanish, Latin, Greek and many others. While some concentrate on a specific area, such as Kenneth Hale.

Kenneth Locke Hale was born on August 15, 1934 in Evanston, Illinois and passed away on October 8, 2001. While he was a linguist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, or MIT, his specialty was the endangered languages and those that were not studied before. These included many different Native American including Ulwa and Navajo.
